As someone who didn't play Third strike, can someone explain Alex and Urien to me? People seem so hyped for these characters.
Urien caters to that niche of "tall, muscular almost naked dudes" that some people need in their fighting games. He's also one of the best charge characters, his Aegis Reflector setups were nuts.

Return of favorite characters maybe...?
What I don't get is the hate for Evil Ryu... Been playing him for a few weeks now and he seems such a cool character...
It's just the hate for shotos, I've never understood the hate.

Nobody hates Evil Ryu.. where did you get that?.
In the GAF CG intro thread people were wrinkling their noses at the indication of Evil Ryu (when Ryu gets all bubbly and has a weird distortion effect)...

Oh yeah I remember a video of Tokido using Urien... That was insane...

Ahh, so Alex and Urien are both charge characters? Wow. I gotta say, getting that season pass is getting more and more appealing. Just gonna wait to see how good the premium costumes are before jumping in :D

I think people are just tired of seeing practically everybody use either Rolento, Elena or Evil Ryu and want different and "fresher" characters for SFV.

I'm confused... Do we have to buy Alex when he drops in order to play against him in online matches...

Also who is planning on hosting the SFV endless lobby on release date...?

We don't know for sure what level of access we have in regards to not owning the characters. My guess would be that we can't pick that character online or in single player if we don't own them but can probably play against them if online opponents do own the character. I just hope they'll allow picking them in Training mode.

if u buy him, u can access him.. You'll have to download the update regardless .. However, CAPCOM says the first character will be quite easy to get from Fight Money so dont worry.... Regarding Lobbies, I will defo host them but I suggest someone with a better connection like NAYATEL should always be the host.

Be sure to always host a private lobby and party chat and avoid voice chat in lobbies, it causes delay.

Here's a picture that gives the timeline of the stuff we'll be getting post-release.



Also, it appears the day-night cycle rumour is legit. The above is Kanzuki Estate during the day-time and Capcom recently released a picture of the Waterfall stage at night. So even the stages that are there will have more variety, yay :D

I realize I'm double posting but this is worth it.

Online Battle lobbies will support two players at launch. But eight person lobbies as well as Spectator mode will be patched into the game as part of the March 2016 update.

I guess we'll just have to rely on the find match button till the lobbies are set up. Honestly, if Capcom weren't doing the CPT this year, then they would most definitely have delayed the game till July or something.

I have faith in capcom's matchmaking algorithm...
It gave me three whole matches during the last beta, none of them were from my region...

Wait a minute, we have to unlock story mode costumes and then purchase them... that's stupid...

Yeah, that last beta also gave me very few matches as compared to Beta 3. I think the rank-based matching they implemented there also was a large reason for the lower number of players.
